Dears ,

I'm trying to get documents that not associated with a business process.

I use this query

({LF:bpname<>"Approval Process"})

But the search results includes document associated with this business process.

I think the <> operator is not working.

I'm using Laserfiche 10.2.1

Is there another syntax I have to use ?

Certain LFQL attributes do not support the <> operator, and I think that is one. You will have to do something else like return all documents and then exclude the ones with that bpname. Like this:

({LF:Name="*"} - {LF:BPName="Approval Process"})

Thank you Scott ,

But this makes search process very slow.

Do all the returned documents have multiple BPs associated with them, one which is "Approval Process" and at least one which is something else? If so, you may be encountering: <bad link, see below>

Is that an intranet resource? Any way you can post a link somewhere we can view it?

I am apparently not awake today - here's the external version: https://support.laserfiche.com/devnotes/viewer?name=Laserfiche9.1%2FAdvancedSearch (Yeah, that's the 9.1 version, it will be the same). The direct link doesn't seem to be working, so you can search inside the page for "Semantic Clarification for the <> Operator"
